Photonics21 European Technology Platform

Mission:

� Establish links between industry, science and politics in photonics

� Define a joined photonics strategy for Europe

� Align public financing with industry-perceived priorities

� Transform knowledge into leading-edge products

Membership:

� More than 2000 members (repr. >1000 affiliations) from all over Europe:

� Balanced share of industry and Research & Technology Organisations, Associations, Cluster, National Technology Platforms

� Multiple markets (telecom, lighting, manufact., health)

� Throughout the value-chain (components-systems)

Our Core – The Photonics21 Work Groups

Task:� Discuss & agree about photonics research and innovation topics and

priorities as well as on political recommendations� Provide input to the European Commission‘s Framework Programme & the

different work programmes by updating the Photonics21 Strategic Research & Innovation Agenda

� Provide networking opportunities for the European photonics community

�Photonics Public Private Partnership in Horizon2020

Why a PPP in Photonics?

- Fragmented and uncoordinatedstrategy (implementation) for Photonicsin Europe- Insufficient prioritization of funding(„coffee for all“) - lack of critical mass

+ Huge market prospects+ Strong European position in manyphotonic sectors+ Well developed innovation ecosytem: World leading companies (many SMEs), RTOs, Cluster, (National Organisations)

Overcoming the „Valley of Death“

Analysis► Europe lags ability to quickly turn inventions

into innovations and products and therewith into jobs.

Our recommendation to overcome the “valley of death”:

► Integrated approach on innovation:► Link technology push and pull► Value chain correctness► Make it easier for SMEs to participate► Manufacturing platforms and services

► Rebalancing of the R&D&I funding programme necessary► More applied research► More steps towards development and

demonstration.

Photonics21 Public Private Partnership – Expectations and Commitment

What we expect and advocate

�Long-term commitment in funding

�Significant budget that reflects the means of Photonics as a KET

�Lean, simple and efficient structures

What the European Photonics industry commits to

�Investing in Europe’s competitiveness and growth (R&D, manufacturing in Europe)

4:1 leverage EU funding by private investment � 200 m €/yr (=1,4 bn € public money over 7 years) x 4 (5.6 bn € private investment)= overall ~ 7 bn € investment

PPP Strategy development

�European Photonics industry/community determines and implements

� Photonics PPP Multiannual Roadmap

� Research and Innovation Priorities on Photonics in Horizon2020 (call topics)

13

Integrated Approach in a PPP to bridge the Innovation Gap

� Disruptive and Road-Map based Core Photonic Technol ogies� Roadmap-based research – value chain approach, involvement of end users� Disruptive technology - breakthrough advances for disruptive research

� Demonstration Programmes� Deployment programmes to leverage EU infrastructure to create jobs� Coordinated market pull/push measures seed and accelerate market penetration

� Photonics Manufacturing Platforms – Manufacturing in Europe� Generic photonic foundries – improve infrastructure for photonics manufacturing � Establish public-private pilot production facilities for industry/research

� Innovative Photonics SMEs & Mid Sized Companies� Light touch’ open schemes� Fast-track funding allowing prototyping & short-term commercialization

� Public Procurement� Life Cycle cost approach by public procurement

� Support Actions� Education, training and skills development� Standardization & International Cooperation & Outreach.

Roadmap: Towards 2020 – Photonics driving economic growth in Europe

Photonics Roadmap as a result of

� Bottom-up process involving the European photonics community

� Participation of more than 400 photonicsexperts in 14 Photonics21 workshops

� Public consultation of the roadmap toinvolve other communities (ETPs, PPPs) andend-users

� provides a detailed roadmap for photonics research & innovation activities until 2020
